ALBERT KATZKE, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, ,ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO CHARLES P. BENSON, OF OAKPARK, ILLINOIS.

HOLDER Foe STICKY FLYHPAPER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 744,866, dated November 24, 1903.

Application filed March 21, 1903.

To (tZZ whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, ALBERT KATZKE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of (look and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Holders for Sticky Fly-Paper; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

This invention comprises particularly a folding holder or tray for sticky fiy-paper, and has for its object to form a cheap and convenient device in which the fly-paper will be firmly held and which may be opened to expose. the paper or closed to cover the same.-

In the accompanying drawings, wherein the invention is illustrated, Figure 1 is a top plan View of the devioeopen. Fig. 2 is a side elevation with the bails or clamps which hold the paper unfastened. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section with the parts open. Fig. 4 is a similar section with the parts folded.

Referring specifically to the drawings, the holder comprises a tray, preferably formed of light thin metal in two parts, (indicated at 6,) having upturned rims 7. The tray is of proper size to receive a sheet of sticky flypaper, (indicated at 8.) The parts of the tray are hinged together by pins 9 through a lap of the upturned rims where they meet at the sides. The tray folds on the hinges so produced, as shown in Fig. 4:, when it completely incloses and covers the fly-paper, which folds upon itself within the tray.

To hold the paper in the tray, wire frames Serial No. 148,952. (No made or bails 10 are employed. These are hooked to swing in the upturned rims of the tray and are preferably bent to substantially rectangular shape, as shown, so as to lie close to the edges of the tray, and thereby avoid getting into the sticky stuff on the paper. These bails or frames are in contact with or press upon the uncovered edge of the paper and hold the same tight against the tray. The bails or frames are latched under bosses or projections 11, made in the end rims of the tray, and the resiliency of the parts holds the bails down upon the paper. desired to remove the paper, the bails are disengaged by finger-pressure,springing them from under the bosses, when they may be swung up, as shown in Fig. 2, and the paper readily removed and renewed.

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

l. A paper-holder comprising a folding tray having an upturned rim, and means within the same to bind the paper therein.

2. Apaper-hoidercomprisingafoldingtray, and oppositely disposed clamps therein, adapted to engage and hold the paper in the tray.

3. Apaper-holdercomprisingafoldingtray, and paper-clamps therein extending along the edges thereof.

AB. A paper-holder comprising a folding tray having an upturned rim, andswinging clamps pivoted thereto and extending along the edges thereof.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.

ALBERT KATZKE.
